August iPhone dump

A few of my favorite moments from August! Meet the teacher for the boys! I received this picture from Katie's wife, such a sweet bond they have. I'm also loving how his pajamas are inside out...haha. Walter came back to spend a few days with us! We watched him last summer, and the boys kept talking about him, so we were all so excited when his mom asked us to watch him for a few days. Notice Finn pouting. He was upset that Walter "only pays attention to Fox". So many big emotions in such a tiny body. Mr. Cool Guy at his dentist check up and teeth cleaning! I was trying to get some work done in my office, but this guy needed some attention. Finn made a bed for them, so they could sleep together. In the end, no one wanted to sleep there, but he was so happy to cuddle with Walter for a bit. My friend got me some comedy tickets to see "Nurse John", so I invited my two besties, and two of my old classmates, and we had a blast, he was so funny. We even got VIP acc

First day of school

This year I have a first and a fifth grader! Aww, he was so tiny in the first picture in Pre-K! Last year of elementary school for this big kid, and Mama is not ready for middle school next year. The boys had a great start to their school year, still taking the bus every day, and while no one is a fan of going to school around here, they seem to like their teachers and classes so far. I'm glad to be getting back to more of a routine for them (and me), because let me just tell you...summer was rough! Haha.

July iPhone dump

A few of our July moments! Finn and I have been working on a lot of puzzles this month, and I'm super impressed by his eye for it. This was a 1000 piece puzzle and I would say he probably did more than half of it. Playdate with some friends! Proud little dude after finishing the puzzle. He desperately needed a hair cut, but how cute are these curls? Breakfast with my boys! A special adventure with my big kid to this inflatable lake obstacle course! So much fun, but I realized quickly how out of shape I was, and I was really sore the next few days! They both made it up the ramp at Skyzone, and wanted a picture to celebrate. We watched my friend's cats for a few days at her house, and Fox immediately fell in love with them, and asked repeatedly for us to get a cat too.  Still my little boy... He has been playing basketball over the summer, and it was so fun watching him gain confidence and being so proud when he scored hoops.  Grandma gave him this eye mask, and he insisted on we

Finn's 6th Birthday

My baby is six years old! For his birthday, we had a "yes day"! After opening some gifts, we had breakfast at his favorite breakfast place, which happens to be my favorite too, so we were both very happy! We visited Candytopia almost 5 years ago, and the kids kept asking to go back. It finally came back to Scottsdale, so I surprised them with a visit, and they both still loved it. All the exhibits were made out of candy! The highlight was the giant marshmallow pit though. We got some cupcakes at Sprinkles afterwards... ...and ended the day with dinner at Finn's favorite restaurant, where we met up with Katie and Christina.  I think he had a great day, and we are planning to have a kids party for him once school starts up, so we can invite some of his classmates. It's very bittersweet to see my boys grow up, and there isn't a day that I didn't wish that I could turn back time and do it all over again. Time is fleeting too quickly!
